Description
Attach a recorded evening-start convention to religious date text.
Religious-source records depend on the work, edition, translation, calendar tradition and locator system. Verse numbers and hymn-meter counts are supplied annotations; a shared label need not imply identical text or observance. Evening starts, transfer rules and public admission windows require their stated source rather than an assumed universal calendar or authority.
Attach a recorded evening-start convention to religious date text.
When to use this tool
Use Religious Date Evening Start Tag when you already have dateText, eveningStartRecorded, calendarSource and need to attach a recorded evening-start convention to religious date text.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter dateText, eveningStartRecorded, calendarSource. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read label. Use the output convention below.
Require nonempty dateText/calendarSource; append evening start when eveningStartRecorded, otherwise start unspecified, and preserve the source.1

"input": {
"dateText": "Date A",
"eveningStartRecorded": true,
"calendarSource": "Calendar A"
},
"output": {
"label": "Date A [evening start]; Calendar A"
}
} Limitations and assumptions
- No date parsing, sunset calculation, calendar conversion or religious authority determination is performed.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Consult the specific work, edition, calendar authority or rights record for a verified citation or observance. Use the source text and its prosodic convention for actual syllable analysis; supplied counts and locators can organize that review.
